    I can't believe you left Bristol, to me you are the epitome of a "St. Paul's" resident!

    To be honest I think he comes across better than most. I assume you two have some history? At times several have ganged up on him, but others have stuck up for him. But yeah the large majority over there are ultra impatient, hypocritical and clueless. To put it mildly.

    There's just as many opinionated people on here, only here they largely back up their opinions rationally. Compare that with the largely negative, unmitigated drivel you get over on the FB group. As fans of this club we've been spoilt something rotten over the past 5 years. So it's no surprise a section of our fans act like the proverbial spoilt little brat.

    When I was taxi driving I had a very polite man from Weston who used to pay me £50 just to go and shake hands with a man on a bike in St. Paul's then come straight back to Weston! You don't find many men as polite as that!

    Also I've just looked at the Facebook group too and frankly Beefy assessment of the collection of pricks in there seems quite kind.

    What I find just as bad Guru, and I am not sure if I will get much support on this one, is.............that someone chose to take offence on behalf of someone else!

    100% behind you thai on that one! sometimes i think people feel they ought to be offended by something so they are, rather than they are actually are offended by what was said.

    If that makes sense?

    It makes sense but we won't know on this occasion without knowing what was said, if it was something outrageous then the reporting is justified imo!

    without question Dave, if it was racial abuse then the person deserves everything they get. just as long as it wasn't a farce as the hodgson debarcle!

    No specific run in but I remember when he had a massive go at Darren eadie because he got mugged off, considering this is a man that's had problems with depression I wouldn't start slagging him off like that.

    If you read on there he celebrates howsons goal, then wants hoolahan on to "go for it" then slags off Hughton at the end of the match

    I mean, what the ****.

    As if we haven't got enough real issues getting much needed points, we internally combust and attack our manager - absolute quality FFS!

    I honestly never thought I´d see the day when a Norwich ´supporter´, and I use the term loosely, would throw vile racial abuse at a Norwich manager, what the hell is the world coming to, and just what do they hope to achieve. If he can be identified, the club should have no hesitation in slapping a life ban on him, because with supporters like that, who needs opposition fans. Dreadful!

    I'd argue that the racist abuse of a genuinely nice man who has done nothing wrong is a really issue.
    Ultimately football is still just a game.
